Corn on the Cob with Basil Butter | Summer Party Menu | Grilling and Outdoor Summer Party

Sweet corn season is here. When I was younger, that meant my sister and I would pick dozens of ears and set up our Sweet Corn Stand in the front yard to make money we could take on vacation. We would sit outside all day shucking corn and selling paper grocery bags full to anyone that stopped by with $4 or $5. Our corn stand was always much more successful than our lemonade stand. After all, it was hard to get anyone that was speeding down our country gravel road to stop for a $0.25 cup of lemonade. But sweet corn, that was an easy sell.
